Well, the fact that it goes up against Green Arrow in Worst picture of the year lets you know that it won't be taking that award home.

WHATTTTTTT WORST MOVIE

Have to admit, I was expecting this.

They just nominated it for worst movie because Michael Bay directed it.

it deserves the first two hardcore .

Nice to see it's not completely negative.

Geeze how many stupid award shows do we need?

DM, I know you and I have had our disagreements in the past, and there's been plenty of things we didn't agree on, but come on man.

Green Lantern is worse than Twilight? What the hell is wrong with you man? Don't tell me you're one of THEM.

As bad as the Twilight stuff is, it can still be appreciated in a "Megasquid vs Giant Octopus", so bad you have to laugh at it, kind of way.

Jack and Jill, on the other hand. No. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.

I watched one of them, and while those where the worst 3 hours of my life, it still provided me with loads of joke material.

While Green Lantern, is well, a horrible movie featuring Green Lantern.

Sucker Punch should win by a landslide. That movie was packed with so much ass and dookie.

She dances and everyone forgets! And there we go again, watching another useless action scene!

Worst Movie of the Year? Oh come on. Idiots.

You're choosing Robert Paterson over Ryan "I screwed up two comic book characters but I'm still awesome" Reynolds.

You're man card, please be giving it to me now.

Robert Pattison at least knows he's in crap and openly hates and trolls Twilight, which actually kinda makes him more awesome than Reynolds.

Green Arrow?

More film critic funded "worst movie" awards that amount to them circle-jerking about how important their opinions are(n't)?

To quote John Malcovich in DoTM:

"Impress me."

Basically, the way that these awards work is, if the film is just, well, enjoyable (which DOTM was) and doesn't pretend to be anything more, then it's automatically terrible. Also, in the film world, if you say anything good about Michael Bay then you get attacked with LOL EXPLOSIONS TROLOLOLO. But then film critics stopped being about actually giving proper reviews a long time ago, in favour of finding funnier ways of saying "THIS FILM SUCKS LOL".

Unfortunately, not only has the Transformers movie franchise got normal "critic" stupidity up against it, it also has the people going "OMG IT'S NOT G1 THEREFORE IT SUCKS!!!!". I for one thought the new aesthetic was a breath of fresh air, infinitely preferable to the G1 "stack of rectangles" look, with no proper joints and horrific size changing and deformation.

And come on, who honestly watches a giant robot film for the plot? (Unless it's Neon Genesis Evangelion, and let's face it, they weren't trying for anything remotely like that).

Green Arrow?

Whoa, Metal, get your facts straight.

As much as I know, there is no movie of Green Arrow.
The only thing about Green Arrow is the 2012 TV series titled "Arrow"

Let's be not mixing up autobots and gobots
for only stupid we make ourselves look

Seriously? You're going to drag up an argument that's a year old?

To be fair I am a little nuts on the top floor, so yeah.

How are you!I'm new!
